FAQ
What does DFSA require for cybersecurity in DIFC?
Robust security controls, incident response and operational continuity; ISO 27001, SOC 2 and PCI DSS are valued as evidence. I implement and evidence these on AWS.
Do you cover ADGM and PCI DSS?
Yes — ADGM firms face similar expectations, and UAE fintechs handling card data must meet PCI DSS v4.0. I deliver segmented, encrypted, audit-ready environments.
Is ISO 27001 mandatory in the UAE?
Not strictly, but DFSA/ADGM regard ISO 27001, SOC 2 and PCI DSS as strong evidence — and partners increasingly require them.
Do you work with Dubai companies remotely?
Yes — remote-first across UAE/Gulf time zones, with zero-finding audit experience in fintech and payments.
